White Wine
Colterenzio Pinot Grigio 2001 $10
A superbly balanced and very appealing Pinot Grigio with vibrant falvors of fresh apples and hints of almonds, it finishes with crisp acidity.
DeForville Moscato d'Asti $13
Not too fruity or sweet, this Moscato has just enough bubbles.
Piero Pan Soave La Rocca 2000 $29.95
A wine to break your image of Soaves as being of low quality. Lush flavors of melon and pear—this is a classic white from the Veneto.
DeForville Chardonnay $15
Very clean and crisp, with almost no acid effects like those of most Chardonnays.
   
 
Red Wine
 
A-Mano Primitivo 2001 $9.95
A big juicy red from Apulia that is perfect for barbecues and other warm weather foods. This wine is a huge value for the money!
Albarossa Rosso $10
Complex and interesting with dark berry flavors and earthly qualities.
Podere della Sala Chianti Classico $11.50
Medium-bodied with sour cherry fruit flavors and velvety texture, this is an "old-style" Chianti with no discernable new oak flavors.
Silvio Grasso Dolcetto d'Alba 2000 $13.50
Lovely flavors of ripe raspberries with hints of coffee and anise. It has a nice, juicy supple palate impression, with medium-light tannin with a persistent finish.

Guado al Tasso 1999 $84.95
This is a very serious wine from Bolghieri in Tuscany, one of the first and best Supertuscans up there with Sassicaia and Ornellaia. The price is extremely competitive, and as a vintage, 1999 for Tuscany is equal to 1997.
